Best Attorney I’ve ever had

She was very knowledgeable of the law, and thoroughly explained my situation and my options. She was able to get me out of a tough spot by taking my case trail and winning!

Criminal defense lawyer | Jan 12

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"When Chelan Vukas came to Perry & Associates to work in the criminal courts, she certainly hit the ground running. I don’t think the ink was even dry on her business cards when she got her first Not Guilty verdict in Modesto. And then those acquittals just kept coming. There was one case in particular that Chelan “inherited” from me after I left Perry and Associates. The case really bothered me because the client was such a nice, law-abiding man with a good job, who had simply been in the wrong place at the wrong time, with the wrong person and ended up with felony charges. The DA was simply not willing to give the poor guy a break, so what did Chelan do? Well, she didn’t just keep putting it off hoping it would go away (like I had been doing). Oh, no. She took that case straight to trial and BAM! – not guilty! Chelan has many skills, but if I had to use only one word to describe her, I would say that she is FEARLESS! (And she probably knows magic.)"

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
